1. Use Nature

Are you looking for something warm and sophisticated? Using mother nature is the best way to achieve that. Consider taking inspiration from traditional Christmas wreaths. You can buy an evergreen holiday centerpiece that's adorned with pinecones and berries. Top this off with some festive-colored candlesticks and you have one of the most elegant Christmas centerpieces.

2. Make a Reindeer the Star

If you want something more cheery and bright, consider making a reindeer the star of your Christmas centerpiece. But, don't just settle for any reindeer figurine - go for a gold, glittery reindeer. This will act as a focal piece, and really get your guests' attention.

Surrounding the reindeer, you can create a mini winter wonderland. By using tree figurines and fake snow, your table will look like it was pulled right out of the North Pole!

3. Go Sweet

What's your favorite part of Christmas? For many, it's baking Christmas cookies, enjoying a cup of hot chocolate, building gingerbread houses, or indulging in candy canes. Why not bring this youthful touch into your centerpiece?

There are tons of DIY centerpieces you can try. For a simple centerpiece, consider gluing candy canes around a candle holder and tying it off with a red bow. If you want something that will leave you with visions of sugarplums dancing in your head, consider creating a Christmas candy bouquet. You can fill a jar up with Hershey kisses or gumdrops and stick oversized Christmas lollipops coming out of it. Add some non-edible glittery accents to bring it all together.

4. Frost Your Candles

One of the simplest Christmas centerpiece ideas is to add a little frost to your candles. Take a thick, festive-colored candle and coat it in Epsom salt using mod podge. It'll look like you dipped it in real snow!

You can create elegant Christmas centerpieces by placing these frosted candles on nice candle plates. For a rustic centerpiece, frost half the candle, and attach a rustic ornament using twine.

5. Use Ornaments as Fillers

Who says ornaments have to stay on the tree? You can create wonderful Christmas table centerpieces by filling a festive bowl or vase with ornaments. The best part is that they're so versatile. If you want something fun, consider using colorful or printed ornaments. If you want elegant Christmas centerpieces, go for silver and gold ornaments.
